Jane, are the shampoo and conditioner good quality? I may forgo bringing my own and save the room. Anne

They are H20 products. I haven't used the shampoo and conditioner but I LOVE the rest of their stuff.

Rob, did you cancel your wifes pottery excursion in Tunis? Should I be concerned about our 2 daughters going? I called Disney and the said of course Disney wouldn't have any excursion that would possibly be dangerous. I also posted a question to the 4/24 cruisers to see if anyone had first hand knowledge of going and how they felt about it. Anne

There is nothing to indicate any cause for concern about travelling in the area around Tunis beyond the precautions one would take travelling anywhere. I've looked long and hard before signing up for our 4x4 Jeep excursion out into the countryside. Your daughters will be fine. When on a Disney cruise tour there will be LOTS of fellow cruisers AND several castmembers around at all times.

I think your suggestion of around 10 pm is good. I think the Promenade Lounge is a good place because there's more seating there than anywhere else.

Hi All its Me again!!!!! Its the middle of the night but just cant sleep (am watching to see who gets in goverment but really day dreaming about the cruise)
1. Can i ask yet more question!!!! We dont really want to take a buggy although will need one if / when we get off so i know they have a limited amount do you think they will be all gone as we will be one of the last to board (if we get there in time ahhhhhhhhh)
2.If we do get off at ports can we take there tales or should i bring our own!
3. Instead of a pillow case to ask the characters to sign could i bring a photo frame and where do i go to get that sorted!!
4. Does it show on our tickets when our dinner time is (i called iglu who said they dont know when it is but have sent disney an email to request early) Why is it everyone else knows!!!
5. Am thinking of booking teeth whitening treatment (brits arent renoned for great teeth lol) but dont want to decide on a time now as hate to book when doing something with my bubs!! soooo do you think i could book on board!
6. Have had another idea for my Fe gifts but not sure if its allowed... can i bring flower seeds or is that a food substance dont really no much about customs!!!!

I have no safety concerns, I just don't want to be stuck in a car for that long with my children more than necessary.

Is anyone else staying at the Renaissance Barcelona Airport Hotel? That would like to go to the fountains Friday night?

Also, I remember back a bunch of posts people were possibly getting a group together to go zip lining. I would be intereseted in doing this but I dont think my cousin and her friend would be. I was wondering if this is still happening and if I can get some information so that I can possibly tag along

We are! I would like to go to the fountains too. Our plan is to visit La Sagrada Familia, eat dinner at La Paradetta and then head to the fountains. Maybe we could share a taxi on the ride back?

The zip line park is about a 45 minute drive from Ajaccio and opens at 10:00. I know at least 3 drivers are sharing a cab to airport to pick up cars. I don't know if any will have space or not. Cars run around $120 so I would say $30plus gas money would be transpo cost. Park I think is 10 euros. Expect to stay 1.5 to 2.0 hours. Some drivers may come straight back to town and then drive along coastal road in afternoon. Others may stay near zip lines and go to the tortoise sanctuary.

As far as zip lining goes there are more things than zip lines. Think rope trails through the tree tops. Here is the website again with lots of great pictures. http://www.revesdecimes.fr/ Maybe your cousin would like to come just to document your death defying feats for the family history books.

We are as well. Our goal is to go to the Chocolate Museum and La Sagrada Familia during the day and the fountains at night. We'll see if we make it.

Maybe the people that are staying at the Renaissance Barcelona Airport Hotel can all meet up in the lobby like the people that are staying at the Eurostars.

Thanks Jeff, that makes me feel better! Anne

I haven't done a ton of research other than into the park itself, but I do know that there is a train that will take you to the adventure park as well. It's about a 35 min train ride. Just don't know the cost of the train or how to get there from port. Am thinking this might be a better route for my group to go.

To quote multiple posts, hit the quote marks + icon on the lower right of the posts you want to quote. It'll turn orange and have a - sign. On the last post you want to quote, hit the regular "quote" button and it will bring up all the posts you marked.

I thought the LDSsinglegirls had disappeared! Do you have a link for the train?

Too funny! I'm still around. Been crazy busy at work AGAIN! I'm running out of time to plan for the cruise, which is both good and bad

I don't have a link for the train? Do you have info on it?

 

[rguinness]

Is anyone staying at the AC Diplomatic? Rich and I will be there May 14. Even better, we just heard from Orbitz that we will be getting $132 back since someone booked the room at a lower price than we did. I thought they did that only in commercials!
My guess for the page total is 66.

To the right of the "Quote" button on each post is a button that looks like a piece of paper with "+ (quote sign and plus sign). Click on that button on each of the posts you want to reply to, then either hit "Quote" on one of those posts, or hit the "Post Reply" button. You'll get quotes for each post you mark. Put your comments after each [/QUOTE] tag. This works even across pages (if you want to quote one post on Page 2 & one on Page 3, it remembers them). I really like this feature. I'm not sure how long it's been there, I just noticed it a couple of weeks ago.
